Don't pull the battery when it hangs, this is from experience, i pull the battery and my phone got bricked, good thing it was totally bricked, so i go to htc support here in my country and act like dumb that i do not know about it and it was still covered in warranty so it was replaced.

today when my phone hangs or will change rom i always attached it to PC just in case something happen you can use "ADB command" - you can search for it.
[HTC Desire S] thedieselspaceship:
I know about adb, but adb devices shows me nothing when the phone freezes. Hence, I have no choice :(
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
It's only one type of Emmc chip that can get corrupted so it's worth determining you have the bad one , don't know the command off the top off my head, you'll find it in the index Emmc links

Hi,

I just flashed this rom (July 13th build) but I have pretty poor wireless performance (low signal). Any indication as to how I can fix/debug this?
[HTC Desire S] thedieselspaceship:
Please look at the picture.
[HTC Desire S] Bewinxed:
Yup, welcome aboard the fail boat B-)

I have the same chip and over liked the battery many times and nothing happened luckily, you can never be too careful though.

Volume then ADB then maybe let it run out of juice, if you aren't patient then connect it to ac then pull the battery.

Ps: not all the chips from that model are defected, just saying, but you can never know, be afraid.... Be very afraid >8D
[HTC Desire S] Kolo39:
But sometimes I have the problem that it hangs and I'm not able to use this volume power button thing and when I connect it with my charger nothing happens so I have to pull the battery :/

Furthermore ADB also fails because my computer doesn't recognize my phone...
[HTC Desire S] Bewinxed:
I know, nothing will work with the kernel oops except battery pull, i'm just saying if you want to pull it, pull it after connecting the phone to ac power as not to fry the chip...

So the legend says ;-)
[HTC Desire S] Mr. Death:
You don't have to pull battery. If you have 10 minutes you can wait. It'll reboot itself. I have same M4G2DE eMMC so I rather wait, but I've pulled it few times too.
[HTC Desire S] apx@dwx:
ehm, despite all the love but this isn't the technical support thread^^
[HTC Desire S] thedieselspaceship:
Ok. As I undestand from this and previous post I need to follow next steps if my phone will hang:

1) use +/- volume + power buttons (if it doesn't help try the second step)

2) connect the phone to PC and try to reboot it with adb reboot recovery/bootloader (follow step 3 if it doesn't work)

3) wait for 10 minutes while the phone doesn't reboot itself (else go to step 4)

4) connect the phone to PC and pull a battery out

Please correct if I am mistaken.
[HTC Desire S] Kolo39:
Yes that's right

I'm having a little problem. It seems I can't hang my phone on the charger when it's off. That is, it will turn itself on and boot into recovery. Is this a CM feature/bug? And if so, is there some way to turn it off? Because I sometimes like my phone to be OFF and to be charging...

Working on fixing the 3D issues whilst we wait for the 3.0 source. Managed to get KGSL updated and instead of causing a kernel panic, the adreno driver catches the error but doesn't recover.

Not much else to report really, aside from a redesign of the first 3 posts. I've given both build types their own post so we can have separate change logs and such.

I installed latest build today. So far so good.

I don't feel any slowdowns (like I had on the ROM from page #1, the one from 13th June) anymore, previous build (linaro toolchain) felt a little snappier however.

Everything seems to be working great, and sweep2wake is just amazing :)

Good job!
[HTC Desire S] nk111:
Take this just as a suggestion... I had situations the last days where the phone really felt slow especially when the task manager was well filled... I now switched from interactive to ondemand governor and this problem seems gone?!

Flashed your kernel, just one problem I noticed - the previous toggles from nexx rom are still persistently present (no way to remove them). a small inconvenience in return for sweep2wake and smartassv2 governor :)

Just remove all "enabled toggles" from the toggles settings and set position of brightness toggle to don't show.

[HTC Desire S] Fidoble:
Sounds great nk111 :)

I have a "small" request for you.

As it is right now, any AOSP based rom that I have tried cannot automatically turn on 3G mobile data to download MMS messages. The original HTC roms does that.

Example:

On an original HTC rom the MMS message is automatically downloaded. If the 3G mobile data is not turned on, the message app turns it on and downloads the MMS message and then turns the mobile data off again.

This means that you receive a MMS message just like an SMS message which is a very nice thing.

If you don’t want it to, you can uncheck the automatic download setting in settings for the message app.

Then you will have a Download button which you will have to press to download the message.

It would be so nice if you or nexx could implement this officially into CM9.

My best regards

[HTC Desire S] nk111:
Just to make sure I understand that right. There actually is a setting in the messaging app to enable "auto downloads" but this is not what you want because it does not enable data transfer automatically on mms received... Right? So if data transfer is already enabled everything is ok now. Correct?
[HTC Desire S] roli006:
yes it's with sweep2wake

In the afternoon i'm going to test 3G on the way to university! I'm curious whether there is an improvement.
[HTC Desire S] perrofeo58:
Screen Off Toggle

Hi, may add Screen Off or sleep button, on main Toggle or main bar?
[HTC Desire S] BillGoss:
With sweep2wake, you don't need that because swiping the soft keys from right to left puts the phone to sleep.
[HTC Desire S] pcrepair:
That's correct nk111. If it could turn data on when a mms comes in and then download the mms then turn data off again, that would be perfect.

install exodus 1.1 theme for cm9 , it includes cm settings apk, it works )

link
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
There's no need to install/flash a theme for that. CM Settings apk is posted several pages back linked by one of our members. I've tested it and it works once you put it on system/app

Also according to what I've read on CM9 wiki HERE, there's a high chance that a separate CM setting application will not be available on the official CM ROMS. It is said that CMParts (former CM7 setting app) caused some problems and things were harder to fix, therefore on new CM (AOSP) ROM's focus will be put on integrating those settings in the standard settings application. That means that we'll find CM settings spread in the standard setting sections as applicable. This could also be the reason for which Nexx does not include this in his builds...I might be also wrong though
[HTC Desire S] ramiro.f:
Great work! I'm almost 100% ready to use this as my daily. Only issues for me:

- I can't get the camera to work at all. Only error I get is "Can't connect to the camera", happens no matter what camera software I use. I definitely have flashed the camera addon - even flashed it again to make sure.

- Browser rendering is horrendously slow - sometimes a page will take a minute to render, and when I scroll down I am waiting 10 seconds at least for the tiles to render. Zooming as well, text remains blurry for a number of seconds.

Is anyone else seeing these issues? I see no mention of it, but we all have the same phone, why would I be seeing issues that no one else has?
[HTC Desire S] BillGoss:
I had no problems getting the camera to work.

The browser isn't the fastest, but I've not experienced really long delays like you mention.

I'm using this ROM all the time now.

[HTC Desire S] thebiffman:
Im in mostly the same position as you, I need the camera before I'll switch to CM9. I havent tried the camera fixes so Im no help there. I did try CM9 during a couple of hours one night and the reason why I switched back to CM7 directly was that the browser barely functioned compared to Dolphin HD on CM7. It took a very long time to render some elements.
[HTC Desire S] crescal:
can confirm this issue with latest zip (121118), but this is not happening on 121117 so install that if you need a working camera
[HTC Desire S] nk111:
those with problems to get camera working at all with the latest build please try the following:

Reboot > Open ADB > su

chown system.camera /dev/msm_camera/*

chmod 0660 /dev/msm_camera/*

then try the camera.

Could be that nexx forgot to include that permission change in the latest build due to his hardware trouble...

This workaround must then be done on every reboot until the next build arrives :)
[HTC Desire S] Nexx:
Correct =)

The CM9 settings are being integrated into the standard Android settings rather than being a separate application. Work in under-way on this but it hasn't been merged yet. I try and keep these builds as close to the available CM code as I can, hence why I haven't added the CM settings application into the ROM. I know for you, the users, it's a little inconvenient having to add these things afterwards but I prefer not to have things in the released ROM which may well disappear in the future.

The camera issues could well be due to the fact I assumed the camera pack would work on the new ROM I released. I'm kinda providing it as an extra for people to test but the CM team haven't yet decided how the camera will be handled with CM9. As I said above, I'm not happy including code which isn't in the CM code-base, but for the camera I decided an additional pack would be acceptable. I'll release a new pack when I release the next alpha.

As for the browser rendering, I haven't seen any slowdown. In fact the browser is significantly quicker than the one in Gingerbread. Could you perhaps provide a URL to a website you're having issues with and I'll check?

Doh! I bet that's it >.<

The 17 Jan build was done on my laptop which didn't have that change. I'm going to merge it soon so I stop forgetting -.-;
[HTC Desire S] Nexx:
Update posted, new camera patch and I've added the CM settings patches =)

Assuming there's no major issues with this one, It'll likely be a little time before I release the next build, I really want to get some of the big issues fixed (USB tethering / Bluetooth / etc).
[HTC Desire S] djsubtronic:
Hey Nexx, does this have volume key track changing yet? If not do you have a rough timeframe as to when this would be implemented? I.e. post stable? Just curious because I've always been a CM guy, but because of the volume key feature I am using Quattro at the moment.
[HTC Desire S] nk111:
In which cm version did you have this feature? Maybe I can make an update for this. Does quattro have this?

Gesendet von meinem Desire S mit Tapatalk
[HTC Desire S] djsubtronic:
Long-Pressing volume key down/up while screen is off skips music tracks previous/next and works universally on all music players. CM7 had this in the CM settings, and yes Quattro has this also.

Another thing I also liked/used a lot was CM7 allowed music controls (back/next/play&pause etc) in the notification toggles, which came in very handy if you wanted to skip tracks while messaging or browsing for example. But none of the ICS has music controls in the toggles yet.
[HTC Desire S] vampire36:
I wanna know if someone whose installed if it has volume wake up...i m always afraid with power button wake up..

To be true and i accept its very lame..this was d only reason y i wasn't using cm9 in the first place :P

Is it present this time???

I had tried using quattro android policy.jar...but seems cm has a different jar and replacing didn't work...so would be great if someone can comment...

Btw nexx awesome work...itching to test :)
[HTC Desire S] djsubtronic:
Tried replacing the CM9 android.policy.jar with the Quattro one, the phone boots up but then stays on the boot animation and starts vibrating every few seconds. Never reaches the home screen. I wonder why, since both ROMs are based on AOSP...

---------- Post added at 07:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:27 PM ----------

As a side note

- There is no vibration when pressing the softkeys at the bottom, is that by design, and if so is there any way to make it vibrate?

- A keyboard switching icon appears in the notification any time I am typing, which is annoying. This isn't there on Quattro, is there any way to disable that icon?

- Can't seem to find a way to turn off USB Debugging icon either

Thank you
[HTC Desire S] nk111:
There is a setting under sound settings to turn of softkey vibrate! But it's very very short vibration though. I like it that way but maybe someone doesn't.

The keyboard switching icon appears because of the 3 different IMEs installed. I don't know how to delete the japanese or chinese...
[HTC Desire S] djsubtronic:
Cool thanks.

I'm trying to modify the android.policy.jar to incorporate a way to change tracks using the volume keys. But so far I am having no luck lol. I don't know how much you know about that file? I'm trying KeyguardViewMediator.smali... correct me if I am wrong.
[HTC Desire S] -Sumsy-:
The new cm9 music app is much better then the one previously installed runs smoother could you add this in your next update nex please
[HTC Desire S] enomis27:
is this issue still present in latest release?
[HTC Desire S] nk111:
Should be the right place. If you wait some minutes I could provide I framework.jar which has wake support for the volume keys... At least I'm trying to make a build... :D

update:

sorry i meant policy.jar
[HTC Desire S] djsubtronic:
Lol awesome. I've been trying but keep failing :(

Btw found a way to delete the Chinese keyboard it's /system/app/PinyinIME.apk, can't find a way to get rid of the japanese one though. Deleted the default one as well but I still get the keyboard icon on the statusbar.

---------- Post added at 09:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:59 PM ----------

@ Nexx

I dunno if you remember how back when CM7 was being made gold, there was an issue where the music attenuation wasn't working with headphones plugged in (i.e notifications would turn the music off completely until the sound finished) whereas it worked as expected on the phone speaker (i.e music volume lowers while notification is played).

I just wanted to bring this to your attention that during my testing I found the same issue exists on your 24/01 release here. I recall it was fixed by modifying libaudiopolicy.

Right, sorry for presuming you as someone who trolls without reading the OP well. Actually speaking, though the sweep2wake is really really useful it drains battery - yday night it sucked off 25% while I slept - so even I would like a kernel without sweep2wake but with other features on.
